Ayuub 8
1 Markaasaa Bildad oo ahaa reer Shuuxii u jawaabay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:
2 Ilaa goormaad waxyaalahan ku hadlaysaa? Oo ilaa goormaa erayada afkaagu ahaanayaan sida dabayl xoog badan?
“How long will you go on saying such things? The words of your mouth are a blustering wind.
3 War ma Ilaah baa garsooridda qalloociya? Mase Ilaaha Qaadirka ah baa caddaaladda qalloociya?
Does God pervert justice? Does the Almighty pervert what is right?
4 Haddii carruurtaadii ay isaga ku dembaabeen, Wuxuu iyagii u gacangeliyey xadgudubkoodii.
When your children sinned against Him, He gave them over to their rebellion.
5 Haddaad aad u barido Ilaah, Oo aad baryootankaaga hor dhigto Qaadirka,
But if you would earnestly seek God and ask the Almighty for mercy,
6 Haddaad daahir ahaan lahayd oo aad qummanaan lahayd, Sida xaqiiqada ah haatan wuu kuu toosi lahaa, Oo hoyga xaqnimadaadana wuu barwaaqayn lahaa.
if you are pure and upright, even now He will rouse Himself on your behalf and restore your righteous estate.
7 Oo in kastoo bilowgaagii yaraa, Haddana ugudambaystaadu aad bay u weynaan lahayd.
Though your beginnings were modest, your latter days will flourish.
8 Waan ku baryayaaye bal qarniyadii hore wax weyddii, Oo bal soo garwaaqso waxyaalihii ay awowayaashood fatasheen,
Please inquire of past generations and consider the discoveries of their fathers.
9 (Waayo, innagu waxaynu nahay qoonkii shalayto oo qudha, oo waxba garan mayno, Maxaa yeelay, cimrigeenna aan dhulka joognaa waa sida hoos oo kale.)
For we were born yesterday and know nothing; our days on earth are but a shadow.
10 War sow iyagu wax kuma bari doonaan, oo wax kuuma sheegi doonaan, Oo sow qalbigooda kaalama hadli doonaan?
Will they not teach you and tell you, and speak from their understanding?
11 War miyaa cawdu ka bixi kartaa meel aan dhoobo lahayn? Cawsduurkuse miyuu bixi karaa biyola'aantood?
Does papyrus grow where there is no marsh? Do reeds flourish without water?
12 Intuu weli cagaarka yahay oo aan la gooyn, Wuu ka hor engegaa dhalatada kale oo dhan.
While the shoots are still uncut, they dry up quicker than grass.
13 Kuwa Ilaah illooba oo dhan wadiiqooyinkoodu waa sidaas oo kale, Oo ninkii cibaadalaawe ah rajadiisuna way baabba'daa.
Such is the destiny of all who forget God; so the hope of the godless will perish.
14 Oo kaas kalsoonaantiisu way kala jajabtaa, Oo aaminaaddiisuna waa sida xuubcaaro oo kale.
His confidence is fragile; his security is in a spider’s web.
15 Wuxuu ku tiirsan doonaa gurigiisa, laakiinse gurigiisu ma taagnaan doono. Aad buu u xajin doonaa, laakiinse siima uu adkaan doono innaba.
He leans on his web, but it gives way; he holds fast, but it does not endure.
16 Isagu waa ku cagaar qorraxda, Oo laamihiisa curdanka ahuna waxay ka soo kor baxaan beertiisa.
He is a well-watered plant in the sunshine, spreading its shoots over the garden.
17 Oo xididdadiisuna waxay isku duuduubaan taallo dhagaxyo ah, Oo wuxuu fiiriyaa meesha dhagaxyada.
His roots wrap around the rock heap; he looks for a home among the stones.
18 Isaga haddii meeshiisa laga baabbi'iyo, Markaasay inkiri doontaa isaga, oo waxay odhan doontaa, Anigu kumaba arag.
If he is uprooted from his place, it will disown him, saying, ‘I never saw you.’
19 Farxadda jidkiisu waa sidaas, Oo waxaa dhulka ka soo bixi doona kuwa kaleto.
Surely this is the joy of his way; yet others will spring from the dust.
20 Ilaah marnaba xoori maayo nin qumman, Kuwa sharka falase tiirin maayo.
Behold, God does not reject the blameless, nor will He strengthen the hand of evildoers.
21 Wuxuu afkaaga ka buuxin doonaa qosol, Bushimahaagana qaylo farxad leh,
He will yet fill your mouth with laughter, and your lips with a shout of joy.
22 Kuwa ku neceb waxay xidhan doonaan ceeb, Teendhada sharrowyaduna mar dambe siima jiri doonto.
Your enemies will be clothed in shame, and the tent of the wicked will be no more.”
